Sir/maam, you’ve raised a Psychopath.

Sorry, I was just referring to the interview itself.

Soon to be adapted into a trilogy of major motion pictures, directed by Peter Jackson.

*edit: revised wording.

“Cigrit.” That right there is literary anti-depressant.

I never forget to remember. It’s remembering the thing I need to remember within a relevant time period, and not hours to decades past that time, that is the problem.

Those were simpler times. Back when villains had the decency to sign off on the crimes they committed.

Just the alien version of building sand castles.

Elon’s statements are the verbal equivalent of getting drunk and vomitting on a wall. Stuff comes up that you never expected to see, it creates a huge mess, and whatever sticks, sticks.

My wife’s childhood cat was really old when she finally came to live with us in one of our rental places we lived while I was still doing grad studies. We used to close the door bc it was the one room with semi functioning AC, and during the summer we could kind of keep the room a decent temp if we kept the door closed. Anyway, the poor kitty would scratch the door and meow to be let in, and would not stop until we did (she would of course wait until we had fallen asleep first). Anyway, eventually we figured fans and an open widow were easier than being kept awake all night, so the door stayed open. That’s when she started the fun new habit of 2am hairballs while sleeping between our heads…

Sorry, nothing I can do about the situation. I’m just going to go over here now.

I knew I wasn’t making it to the second column without going to the big green oval first. I know who I am.

Side note: They do make a damn fine dish washer! (Not European)

Any echo chamber can produce illusory truth effect. Repeated exposure to misinformation can result in a person failing to identify it as a lie, and begin to register it as fact and the lie gets amplified.

They view the show as a documentary, not a comedy.

Missing the swirl option: child befriends zombie, then convinces zombie to commit war crimes. That’s the child you must fear the most.

Good ol’ WinAmp. I remember rockin’ out to all the mp3s I could possibly pirate on WinAmp while chatting to all my friends on ICQ. Now I listen to podcasts on Spotify while yelling at kids to get off my lawn and putting A535 on my aching back.

Not a dad, but definitely team DeWalt.

That’s overly simplified. Provinces don’t all recieve the same amount of Federal funding for healthcare. Alberta recieved about 6 billion in Federal funding for healthcare, while PEI recieved about 223 million in 2023. Alberta can afford to pay Healthcare professionals more and have been poaching those professionals from Atlantic Canada creating crises in places like Nova Scotia where the population has greatly increased through the pandemic. So, yes of course if you pay those professionals more you’ll solve problems in some places and cause more problems elsewhere.

Now, provinces can up their own taxes to make up for short falls, but guess how popular that will make the ruling parties that chose that.

The solution needs to be a lot more nuanced than just pay them more.

Edit: clarification

Had to walk to school, uphill both ways in -40C everyday, all year. Things were better back then.

The game where you always lose.
